Ootori-sama

Ootori-sama is a powerful bird spirit who lives in the forest near the bathhouse in Spirited Away. He is a large, white bird with a long tail and sharp beak. He is very protective of his territory and will attack anyone who he perceives as a threat. One day, a young girl named Chihiro wanders into the forest while she is lost. Ootori-sama sees her and immediately attacks. Chihiro is terrified, but she manages to escape. She runs back to the bathhouse and tells Haku, the river spirit, what happened. Haku knows that Ootori-sama is a dangerous spirit and he agrees to help Chihiro. Haku goes to the forest and confronts Ootori-sama. He tells the bird spirit that Chihiro is his friend and that he will not allow him to harm her. Ootori-sama is furious, but he knows that he cannot defeat Haku. He agrees to leave Chihiro alone and he returns to his home in the forest. Chihiro is grateful to Haku for saving her from Ootori-sama. She knows that she would not have been able to escape without his help. She also learns a valuable lesson about the importance of respecting nature and the spirits that live in it.
